Description Kelly Shutt 2012-05-11 17:57:09 UTC 
Description of problem:
The version of PyQt4 included with RHEL6 is missing some methods in the QMenuBar class.  Specifically including setCornerWidget method call.  This breaks any pyqt code that attempts to use this method.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
PyQt4-devel-4.6.2-8.el6.i686

How reproducible:
Simply impliment pyqt code that attempts to use the QMenuBar.setCornerWidget method and you will see the error every time.

Additional info:
It does appear the the newer versions of PyQt have corrected the problem, but the version that RHEL6 is using does not include this fix.  It seems like the problem is most likely corrected by adding the correct method definition into /usr/share/sip/PyQt4/QtGui/qmenubar.sip

I have tried adding the method definition myself, but I am unsure on how to rebuild the sip files after modifying them.  If someone could provide instructions on how to rebuild the sip files I could make my own temporary patch.

You can find information about this particular bug on the PyQt site here:  http://python.6.n6.nabble.com/setCornerWidget-for-QMenuBar-td1916049.html

add missing setCornerWidget

the patch adds the missing setCornerWidget. You have to add this patch in PyQt4.spec, and rebuild it.

Could you please verify this patch?

Thanks
